Bogus, since 9-bar is exactly 1 so you are dividing by zero. Why not just say infinity, since that's what you wrote?donglepuss said:i'll start:

The problem is that it is s trivial game if all you have to do is make up a number.
That's why I'm a fan of Grahams Number, which was (for a time) the largest number ever used in a math paper.
Its so large that it cannot be written out in the volume of the observable universe. In fact, the number that represents the number of digits in Grahams number is so large, it cannot be written out in the volume of the known universe.
Is this the biggest? Rayo's number?donglepuss said:i'll start:
